Once again I have come to the last day of my Three Days Three Quotes challenge and I have had so much fun completing this tag. I hope you all have enjoyed reading the quotes I selected as much as I did finding them. Thanks again to Brigitte at The Book and The Bone for tagging me in this challenge.
The rules:
- Thank the person who nominated you.
- Post a quote for three consecutive days.
- Nominate three new bloggers each day.
Splintered is a re-telling of one of my favourite fairytales, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, so of course I have to end the challenge featuring a quote from this series. I loved all three books; the Wonderland A.G. Howard created in Splintered was wonderfully done, darker than Lewis Carroll’s version but still paying homage to the original book. While I thought the second book was a little disappointing the third went right back to what I loved about the first and ended the series on a high note.
“Do you really think these are Alice’s tears?” I ask. “That I’m supposed to make them go away somehow?”
“I’m the wrong guy to ask. I just saw a skeleton with antlers and a forest of aphid-noshing flower zombies.”

It’s one of my favourite fairy tale retelling series so of course I needed to feature a quote from one of the books š but yeah it’s definitely weird, and crazy, and slightly darker than the original Wonderland Lewis Carroll created but I couldn’t put it down!
I really hope you like it š

Yes! It’s a retelling of Phantom of the Opera and sounds so good. It’s going to be in the same style of Splintered!

Hmm, I’m not so much a fan of Phantom of the Opera but I love A.G. Howard’s writing style, and I LOVED Splintered so I’ll probably check it out anyways. Thanks for letting me know š
